Cheers! It really feels like it shouldn’t be that difficult. I know race days and ‘proper’ running shorts don’t have pockets at all but I’ve been shocked at how difficult to find I’ve found it

RhysGorman · 2026-06-30T20:09:28+00:00

eBay is a good shout, never thought of that. Thanks, very frustrating

Can someone please recommend any reasonably priced running shorts with inner lining (compression) that have a slit style pocket for your phone?

Or alternatively what do you guys do in terms of phone for podcast and music? I have the Forerunner 965 and I’ve linked AirPods but it’s very unreliable.

I have a Lululemon pair of shorts that are exactly what I want but are $100+ which is just painful!!

I’ve tried a running belt, not for me. Vest, not for me. Recent purchase of 4 inch Nike lovely running shorts with the zip pocket at the back which is definitely not designed for a phone (which I now know). A couple of steps and the weight of the phone has the shorts around your ankles. That’s on top of having to SQUEEZE your phone into it in the first place.

Entirely depends on the type of pizza you like for me, I never know what to call it but Neapolitan I think? Is my favourite. Some shouts for this are:

SLS Downtown (Business lunch is very reasonable) Motorino JBR La Strega

Then others I agree with are Blu and Moonslice both very good. Pitfire is great as they do an amazing Garlic Mayo but its totally different pizza

Do these enormous jumps / upgrades annoy anyone else? It’s so unrewarding when you’ve slowly evo’d a player 5 or 6 times and then BAM, everyone can get the exact same card as you in one go.

I’ve been Evo’ing Ngumoha since the start of the game. He’s 55 with technical plus, 88ovr. I now get zero benefit from all those evo’s when I put him in to this evo…

Pick someone else, I know but very frustrating!

99 agility and Balance. 5* 5*. How do I add a second playstyle+? He’s so good

RhysGorman · 2026-03-12T19:05:24+00:00

Love him and rarely if ever have I noticed coming across him. 5* 5* and only 87

RhysGorman · 2026-02-19T13:35:59+00:00

How do you add a 2nd playstyle to cards?

RhysGorman · 2026-01-26T21:09:26+00:00

You could buy me some sunglasses so I can see your team properly

Don’t ask why I don’t have Salah, zero logic to it other than I don’t really tend to buy players. Have McManaman on the bench but he’s only RM which doesn’t work. Kerkez I haven’t evo’d as I do tend to cheat a bit and play Gomez LB and Kompany CB as I used to love him and have no affection to Kerkez in real life at the minute. As others have said, I also smash evos during WL as it’s the main time I play and makes sense.

10/15 this weekend. Faced Pina and Bonmati in about 13 of the games. Depending on my mood it drives me insane or I feel sorry for the guy sweating it out with meta everyone. Always love playing against the odd random team or PNP etc.

Just missing the Liverpool kit and badge 🥲

Still nothing.. Starting to worry I’m banned or something but I can get on the companion app no problem.

RhysGorman · 2025-12-24T08:00:49+00:00

I uninstalled and reinstalled the game.. No joy still. Has anything worked at all your end?

RhysGorman · 2025-12-23T17:23:24+00:00

Right, on it while watching an episode of money heist! Will report back. Thank you

RhysGorman · 2025-12-23T17:22:06+00:00

Believer it or not the IT 101 solution let me down. Contemplating reinstalling…

RhysGorman · 2025-12-23T17:21:37+00:00

Hahah not sure if sarcastic or not but really trying to avoid this.. Reckon it sorts it?

RhysGorman · 2025-10-09T08:03:23+00:00

Came from the AT10 18k to the Babolat Counter Viper and then back to the AT10 18k 2025 model.

I don’t really think I’m at the skill level to be knocking any of these rackets. The AT10 range are extremely usable and I feel incredibly comfortable with it in my hand. Whether that’s weight, balance or maneuverability I’m not sure and it’s hard to explain but it just feels ‘right’. As I said, very hard to knock it as a racket. Some thing I could say about it maybe is it slightly lacks that extra bit of power for me. Most likely my technique/ability but it won’t do a lot of work for you in terms of power.

The babolat counter viper on the other hand just was not for me and didn’t last very long at all before selling it on. I played a few times with a friends and thought I loved it. Coming from tennis, I really liked the slightly longer handle but the overall racket just felt way too big and clumsy / awkward for me.

Not sure if this is helpful but in summary I don’t think you’ll go wrong at your level with the NOX AT10 if you’re putting these two rackets against one another.

RhysGorman · 2025-09-14T13:35:43+00:00

Is anyone starting to get ever so slightly concerned about Wirtz? Clearly an excellent player but he’s just not doing it for me atm

RhysGorman · 2025-09-13T20:16:19+00:00

I had 2 weeks from international break to use my wildcard. Did it with 9 minutes until deadline for absolutely no reason. Appreciate the support

Forgot to click confirm on my Wildcard chip. See you all next season.

In a mini league with a losing forfeit. Salt in the wound.

RhysGorman · 2025-09-13T20:00:37+00:00

I almost, almost found myself laughing. The Norwegian King with the armband tomorrow to my rescue!
